My first 12, bought back in probably 1992 or 93. I had it redecked by Bob Fenton (Harwich Boatcraft) who did a beautiful job with Bruynzeel ply. Renamed 'Beau Pipe'. Found sailing it rather difficult and never had enough time in the boat to do it anything like justice, but there were a couple of times when more by luck than judgement it all seemed to hook up and the boat flew. Other than that, capsized a lot and got very despondent. Would love to know who has it now and what it's doing. |
